Nilavukku Enmel Ennadi Kobam, Dragon opt for new release dates to accommodate Ajith’s Vidaamuyarchi

With Lyca Productions announcing Vidaamuyarchi’s release date as February 6, the makers of NEEK and Dragon also shared their revised release date. Sreyas, the director of Wunderbar Films, which is backing NEEK, shared a statement that read, “Due to recent developments, NEEK is postponed to February 21. Thank you to everyone for your unconditional love and support. Om Nama Shivaya.” The movie, which is directed by Dhanush, stars Pavish, Anikha Surendran, Priya Prakash Varrier, and Mathew Thomas.

Similarly, AGS Entertainment, who are producing Pradeep’s Dragon, directed by Ashwath Marimuthu, announced that the film would hit theatres on February 21. Sharing the announcement, Pradeep wrote, “Thala vandha thalli poyi dhaana aaganum (If the leader is coming, we have to make way, right?). Dragon from Feb 21.”

Interestingly, both NEEK and Dragon, are billed as romantic entertainers and campus stories, which might have been perfect for the Valentine’s Day weekend. However, with both films rescheduling their release date to two weeks after Vidaamuyarchi, it is almost like Tamil cinema is urging the romantics in the audience to celebrate Valentine’s Day a week later.
